SENIOR IssUE THE MIRROR WOODROW SN YDER C2H4OH Bones , is the illustrious Business Manager of THE MIRROR staff, who dotes on Chemistry and toots or used to toot a bass horn in the or- chestra. Bones is looking forward to Penn State next fall. As to his name Bones, my lad, tell the ladies how you got your bony name! He's very obliging. WOODROW STEIGERWALT Sadie doesn't like pies, cakes, buns, etc., anymore. CP.S.vhe drives a baker truck-if that's any reasonj but he does like Miss Tomb. He speaks so friendly to her all the time, and never causesarumpus or laughs loudly like other terrible Senior boys. Miss Tomb even calls him her little pest. See Miss Tomb! CATHERINE STEELE Prudes for proccors, dowagers for deans, And sweft girl graduates in their golden hair. Kate is a sweet blonde, quite unlike her name. Her hobbies are such quiet pastimes as reading, bridge and the piano. You make me sick, is the favorite expression of this honor student. Despite her quietness, she is very popular, es- pecially with the girls. MARGARET STEMLER Peg O'My Heart Peg is one of the shining stars along drama- tic lines, in each of the plays and dramas presen - ed, she held a leading part. Dancing holds her interest most of all CThere are rumors of Slating- ton Chevies in her neighborhoodl. Margaret, with her closely cropped curly hair, and grace- fulness, is a great favorite of all masculinity. ROSE STRBO Rosie just loves talking and eating candy, and she can do both for a pre.ty long time. She is of the mighty type, but her weakness is Robbie Her usual questions in any dis- cussion are How much will it cost? and What do we get for nothing? She's a typical Scotch man only she ain't! ELIZABETH STROH Elizabeth 's hobby is typing, and only a week ago she received the silver medal typing award for her speed and accuracy. Her school work is neat and always in-they speak of her as de- pendable, humorous, pleasing. Elizabeth likes swimming and the movies--but more so the for- mer. All in all, she is a lovely girl! MADELINE STURDIK I wandered today to the hill, Maggie To watch the scenes below. Maggie has only one regret: that sheris not taller. Perhaps it is, due to the fact that her ideal is tall-and dark. Madeline likes Sun- day afternoon strolls, too Cwhy ?J She is a very sociable and friendly girl and has many friends, but Elizabeth is her favorite. MARSDEN VAN DERWAART Our Valedictorian, quiet and amusing With a dry sense of humor. Though very serious in class, Marsie is fond of his little jokes. Conscientious and re- liable, he is a willing and capable worker and these characteristics will help Marsden form many fine friendships at Hamilton College. VELMA VEGH Be good, sweet maid. Velma Anne is a very shy girl with quiet inter- ests. Embroidery and poetry are her pets. It is her ambition to become a telephone operator or a typist-probably the former. Her verses are sweet, and filled with beautiful thoughts. Velma herself , is sweet and many others outside the class think so, too. ERNEST WALK A good combination-a Commercial student with a head for business and that all-around fel- lowship that makes a good executive. Ernie was business manager for the Senior Play and very fittingly, president of the Social Club. Hattie-or don't he? Rufus knows! SIDNEY WEBB Twelve o'clock, and all's not well. Ladies and gents, the Great Sidini! Yep, Sid 's a great guy, and what a magiican. He can make dollars disappear before your widened eyes. fDon't let him get hold of yoursj. And what a line he has-fdon't be a poor fish, and get caught on itj, but for some reason or magic potion, the nurses fall heavy for Sid-and notice ladies and gents, he carries nothing up his sleeves -ahoy there, mates-the Great S.dini!
